AUSTIN, TX June 14, 2017 (SailPoint Navigate '17) Edgile, the leading cyber risk and compliance consulting firm, today announced the launch of Cloud Jumpstart, a program to address the identity provisioning and governance challenges faced with enterprise-wide shifts to the cloud. Designed to leverage both Microsoft Azure's secure access and SailPoint's identity governance, Edgile's Cloud Jumpstart helps organizations create business-aligned programs to ensure a secure and compliant shift.

"Enterprises moving to the cloud must ensure they maintain an appropriate level of security and account for increasing compliance issues in today's complex digital environment. Risk officers are realizing they need additional dedicated expertise if they want to successfully transform their company with a lasting, issue-free shift to the cloud," said Don Elledge, CEO of Edgile. "Our new Cloud Jumpstart program delivers organizations a customized blueprint for an efficient, secure, and compliant move to the cloud that improves their overall risk profile."
